    A lot of media guys disrespected Croatia, they might be older but they finished second at 2018, at the Euro they lost to Spain in extra time, and in the recent nations league the won the group with France,Denmark and Austria(losing only to Austria - 4W1D1L record) and suddenly everyone thought Canada will qualify instead of them.Canada did better then expected so far and they have good team to build around for the next world cup.

      well, if Croatia is older then Canada is too. People don't realize but the average age of both teams is pretty similar
      Narrative that Canada is young and Croatia aging and too old it's not really true and dont make much sense.

      @@viktoriliev2958 then you talking about experience not age. Lack of experience does not make Canada a young team. They are still old . I'm too lazy to check, but I'm pretty sure Croatia was older in 2018 and 2021 than it is now.

    A good learning experience for the next WC. Regardless of additional motivation, Croatia are just too good for Canada to beat them.

      Canada did fine when you look at all of the contributing factors, including the "super-rich planted official" in game one. They scored on Croatia which is in-of-itself awesome. No...they were never going to win this game against Croatia but who actually thought they would....honestly? You sound like you were worried they might. Croatia TIED Monaco! Don't count your chickens...

  • @joseph-fernando-piano

    We played very naively after taking the lead, we played right into Croatia's hands, carrying the ball forward slowly and trying to play a possession game, and letting them strike on the counterattack... too bad we couldn't get a result against Belgium, but as a Canadian, at the start of this qualifying cycle, I honestly would have been happy with just getting into the final Concacaf qualifying round, so I really can't complain...

      You would have to actually make it on a regular enough basis to at least chance a head to head. Since money hungry FIFA did you the favour of expanding the competition, you now have no excuses in that regard. As for a rivalry, take a ticket and get in line.
